Chapter 9, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason should be explained for not finding of ethyl alcohol as a product when diethyl ether reacts with hydrogen iodide.

Concept introduction:

Ethers:

An oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups is called as ether. The general formula of ether is R–O–R′, where R and R′ group either alkyl or aryl groups.

Ethyl methyl ether is reaction with hydrogen iodide which yields methyl iodide and ethyl alcohol which is shown below,

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
When ethyl ether is heated with excess HI for several hours, the only organic product obtained is ethyl iodide. Explain why ethyl alcohol is not obtained as a product
When trichloroacetaldehyde is dissolved in water, almost all of it is converted to the hydrate. Chloral hydrate, the product of the reaction, is a sedative that can be lethal. A cocktail laced with it is known—in detective novels,at least—as a “Mickey Finn.” Explain why an aqueous solution of trichloroacetaldehyde is almost all hydrate.
